Hi, after over a year of gathering parts my Celica finally is in the garage and gets her custom header, exhaust and some other stuff.
Yesterday we fitted the big Evo9 intercooler, i had to get the ST205 crash bar because the stock one is to tight, intercooler piping was done too and i'm very happy with it. I will use the stock ST205 air filter box, since there is not much space between the filter box and the engine, the IC piping is a little bit tricky but it looks like we found a good route.     The header will be done in the next days.  Short list of parts i'm using: - Garrett T25 Turbo from a CA18DET - Mitsubishi EVO 9 Intercooler - E-manage Ultimate - Innovate LC-1 Wideband - ST202 3S-GE Injectors (372ccm) - ST205 Fuel Pump - Bosch Blow-Off from a Audi S3 - Custom Header and 3" Exhaust - dozens of other small parts

Hafkai, another question...you're running the stock transmission right? I'd like to do a manual swap before I turbo, and I'm wondering if the ST's C52 (?) will hold the power, or if I should just get the GT's S54.

Yes i have a stock C52, the tranny seems to have no problem with turbo power. I only got some problems with my synchronizers but thats due to the harsh shifting on the track. Btw... i got a little winter project..  I just test-fitted everything to check the clearance, seems to fit with the 16 inch wheels. |

QUOTE (normality78 @ Apr 12, 2010 - 10:28 AM) Is there anyway to make the synchronizers stronger? I don't think there is some way to make synchronizers stronger, the only way to prevent them from getting destroyed is to shift properly ... After over 1000 miles on E85 the engine still runs great and i completely retuned the E-manage to use the possibilities of this fuel. 2 weeks ago i went to the racetrack for the first time this year and with ~10psi boost instead of 8psi like last year. I really love E85.. no knock and the engine stays a little bit cooler than with regular fuel, perfect for track racing. I currently boost about 12,5psi with my daily drive setup without problems but i won't go any further before the engine got rebuild. |
